“What frightens me about a Bernie Sanders or an Elizabeth Warren is like, they think that government is—more government—is the answer,” Belfort lamented in the clip from right-wing Fox Nation host Tomi Lahren’s show No Interruption, which was aired during a Wednesday morning segment of Fox & Friends. “It drives me nuts inside,” added the former stockbroker, who pleaded guilty to charges of fraud and other crimes back in 1999....

“It’s like, if you don’t speak Spanish, don’t speak Spanish,” Morris, a theologian and former Catholic priest, said during a segment of Fox & Friends on Sunday morning. “And I would say the same thing if faith is not a big part of your life, if religion is not a big part of your life, don’t fake it. Because people know it and just don’t do it.” After Fox & Friends played a montage of Democratic 2020 presidential hopefuls talking about their Christian faith, Morris agreed with the show’s co-host Pete Hegseth who suggested that the Democrats were pandering to voters....

Elder, a conservative talk radio host, has routinely argued that the media is attacking him and covering his candidacy unfairly. The Republican contender has said that the press is particularly against him because he’s a Black conservative. During a Sunday interview on the Fox News program Media Buzz, Kurtz questioned Elder over his assessment of the media’s coverage. “Aren’t some of the things you’ve said over the years on the radio—where you’re paid to be provocative, whether it’s opposing the minimum wage, or calling global warming a crock—fair game for the press now that you want to run the state of California?...

“The president would do himself a solid and do his party a solid to take some time today to clarify about his white supremacist statement,” Kilmeade said during a segment on Fox and Friends Thursday morning. “Whether it was the franticness of the night, but a lot of people are forced to explain it today that have other things to do—like, for example, get his Supreme Court justice confirmed.”...

Seventeen percent of Republican voters told Fox News’s pollsters they would prefer that someone other than Trump be the party’s nominee, although 77 percent remained steadfastly behind the president. This small but notable opposition to the president’s re-election within his own party remains unchanged since February, when Fox News measured an identical response to the same question. Support for the president’s re-nomination within his own party has solidified, however, increasing by five points since February....

For international musicians hoping to be discovered, France is the place to be. The country’s open-minded music infrastructure–the concentration of labels, recording studios, radio stations and TV–offers unique breakout potential. “That network gave me the ability to grow,” says singer Angelique Kidjo, who escaped to Paris from Benin in 1983 and is now promoting her new album “Oyaya!” in the United States. For years, France produced little music of its own, so audiences starting lapping up the rich, diverse styles of artists from former colonies....

Freddie Freeman was emotional upon his return to Atlanta over the weekend, but that apparently wasn’t the end of the drama surrounding the situation. Freeman reportedly is at odds with his agency, Excel Sports, and has severed ties with his representation, super agent Casey Close. Freeman said in a statement Tuesday the relationship between he and Excel is “fluid.” Sports Illustrated reported it is “on pause.” On Wednesday, Fox Sports Radio host Doug Gottlieb tweeted that Freeman moved on from Close because Freeman was never informed of the Braves’ final offer before he signed with the Dodgers....

How times change. These days Estonia is open and democratic, and the patrons of hyperchic Pegasus, like the rest of Tallinn, now embrace wireless technology almost as a democratic right. Thanks to a blend of private enterprise and government benevolence, Pegasus is among scores of Tallinn venues to boast free Wi-Fi access. Estonians see a link between easy–or free–access to information and their new democracy. Back in 1991, when the country won its independence, a forward-thinking government looked to IT and the Internet as central pillars of its future economy....

According to the American Kennel Club via Reader’s Digest, French bulldogs, Siberian huskies, poodles, Labrador retrievers, Shih Tzus, Malteses, German shepherds, Chihuahuas, Yorkshire terriers and bulldogs are the dog breeds that get stolen most often in the United States. “The most stolen breeds tend to correspond with the most popular breeds in the country at the time.
